  • Water Scenarios for the Zambezi River Basin, 2000 - 2050
    Water Scenarios for the Zambezi River Basin, 2000 - 2050 Lucas Beck ∗ Thomas Bernauer ∗∗ June 1, 2010 Abstract Consumptive water use in the Zambezi river basin (ZRB), one of the largest fresh- water catchments in Africa and worldwide, is currently around 15-20% of total runoff. This suggests many development possibilities, particularly for irrigated agriculture and hydropower production. Development plans of the riparian countries indicate that con- sumptive water use might increase up to 40% of total runoff already by 2025. We have constructed a rainfall–runoff model for the ZRB that is calibrated on the best available runoff data for the basin. We then feed a wide range of water demand drivers as well as climate change predictions into the model and assess their implications for runoff at key points in the water catchment. The results show that, in the absence of effective international cooperation on water allocation issues, population and economic growth, expansion of irrigated agriculture, and water transfers, combined with climatic changes are likely to have very important transboundary impacts. In particular, such impacts involve drastically reduced runoff in the dry season and changing shares of ZRB coun- tries in runoff and water demand. These results imply that allocation rules should be set up within the next few years before serious international conflicts over sharing the Zambezi’s waters arise.

  • Letter of Concern: Mining in the Lower Zambezi River Water Catchment and Protected Areas
    Letter of Concern: Mining in the Lower Zambezi River Water Catchment and Protected Areas INTRODUCTION This petition is submitted to express the growing concern by the traditional residents of the Lower Zambezi Valley, the international conservation community, and local leaseholders in regard to the numerous proposed mining projects currently under development in the area. These projects are likely to impact the area’s irreplaceable eco-system and cause irreversible damage to one of the greatest natural heritage areas in Zambia, and all of Africa. The mining projects are located both within and adjacent to the Lower Zambezi National Park, the recently formed Partnership Park (the first of its kind in Zambia which is a partnership between community and GMA leaseholders), and Mana Pools National Park, a World Heritage Site located directly across the river in neighboring Zimbabwe. The area currently supports many communities in which thousands of local people depend on sustainable industries including agriculture, fisheries and tourism. As per the signatories document attached, you will see many of the communities are represented here. All of these communities and sustainable enterprises are under threat by the potential consequences of the proposed mining, which does not provide long-term economic benefits to Zambian citizens. As a unique and world-renowned ecosystem with immense financial and ecological value to Zambia, this area deserves the highest level of protection. We are very concerned about the profound and long- lasting negative socio-economic and environmental impacts that are likely to occur if the proposed mining operations go forward. The proposed open pit mining projects are located inside the Zambezi River water catchment, in close proximity to tributaries to this invaluable water resource.

  • Southern Africa • Floods Regional Update # 5 20 April 2010
    Southern Africa • Floods Regional Update # 5 20 April 2010 This report was issued by the Regional Office for Southern and Eastern Africa (ROSEA). It covers the period from 09 to 20 April 2010. The next report will be issued within the next two weeks. I. HIGHLIGHTS/KEY PRIORITIES • An assessment mission to the Angolan Province of Cunene found that 23,620 people have been affected by floods; • In Madagascar, access to affected communities remains an issue. II. Regional Situation Overview As the rainy season draws to a close, countries downstream of the Zambezi River - Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia and Zimbabwe – are not experiencing any new incidences of flooding. However, continuing high water levels in the upper Zambezi, Cunene, Cuvelai and Kavango Rivers are still being recorded, affecting Angola and northern Namibia. Furthermore, as the high water levels in the upper Zambezi River move downstream, localized flooding remains a possibility. In the next two weeks, no significant rainfall is expected over the currently flood-affected areas or their surrounding basins. III. Angola A joint assessment mission by Government and the United Nations Country Team (UNCT) was conducted in the flood-affected Cunene Province from 06 to 09 April 2010. The mission found that 23,620 people (3,300 households) have been affected by floods in the province. Of that total, 12,449 people (1,706 households) have been left homeless but have been able to stay with neighbors and family, whilst the remaining 11,171 people (1,549 households) have been relocated to Government-managed camps within the province. There are also reports of damage to schools and infrastructure.

  • Mozambique Case Study Example1
    Mozambique Case study example1 - Principle 1: The Zambezi River Basin - "dialogue for building a common vision" The Zambezi River Basin encompasses some 1.300 km2 throughout the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region, including a dense network of tributaries and associated wetland systems in eight countries (Angola, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania, Mozambique). The livelihoods of approximately 26 million people are directly dependent on this basin, deriving benefits from its water, hydro-electric power, irrigation developments, fisheries and great wealth of related natural resources, including grazing areas, wildlife, and tourism. Over the past forty years, however, the communities and ecosystems of the lower Zambezi have been constraint by the management of large upstream dams. The toll is particularly high on Mozambique, as it the last country on the journey of the Zambezi; Mozambicans have to live with the consequences of upriver management. By eliminating natural flooding and greatly increasing dry season flows in the lower Zambezi, Kariba Dam (completed in 1959) and especially Cahora Bassa Dam (completed in 1974) cause great hardship for hundreds of thousands of Mozambican villagers whose livelihoods depend on the ebb and flow of the Zambezi River. Although these hydropower dams generate important revenues and support development however, at the expense of other resource users. Subsistence fishing, farming, and livestock grazing activities have collapsed with the loss of the annual flood. The productivity of the prawn fishery has declined by $10 - 20 million per year -- this in a country that ranks as one of the world’s poorest nations (per capita income in 2000 was USD230).

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Prospecting carried out to the south of the Zambezi-Limpopo drainage divide in the vicinity of Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, led to the recovery of a suite of ilmenites with a chemical “fingerprint” that can be closely matched with the population found in the early Palaeozoic Colossus kimberlite, which is located to the north of the modern watershed. The ilmenite geochemistry eliminates other Zimbabwe Kimberlites as potential sources of these pathfinder minerals. Geophysical modelling has been used to ascribe the elevation of southern Africa to dynamic topography sustained by a mantle plume; however, the evolution of the modern divide between the Zambezi and Limpopo drainage basins is not readily explained in terms of this model. Rather, it can be interpreted to represent a late Palaeogene continental flexure, which formed in response to crustal shortening, linked to intra-plate transmission of stresses associated with an episode of spreading reorganization at the ocean ridges surrounding southern Africa.
